The gang talk about the ICE shooting of a woman in Minneapolis, the kidnapping of Venezuelan president Maduro, protest in Iran, and conflict in Aleppo.

Note: This episode was recorded prior to the shooting in Portland, Oregon, but we will be closely following developments. We also did not know Renée Nicole Good’s name at the time of recording, but we feel it should be included here.
